Better By Far

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Better by far you should forget
and smile than that you should
remember and be sad.
     Christina Rossetti







I love those who can
smile in trouble.
Leonardo da Vinci





Instead of wondering
when your next vacation is,
maybe you ought to set up a life
you don't need to escape from.
Seth Godin



A face without a smile
is like a flower
not yet blooming!
Cloudia



Anyone can smile
on their best day.
I like to meet a man who
can smile on his worst.
Lauren Graham *



Smile, and let the
world wonder why.
Minnie Mouse

All the statistics
in the world
can’t measure the
warmth of a smile.

She says "man" because
most women ROUTINELY do this!

Sometimes a smile is hard to muster, but maybe that's when it's needed most. Love the pictures! The first one with the stunning sky is breathtaking, and Pixie looks adorable in the portrait!

A man who smiles on his worst day may be a sociopath!

Pixie is enjoying her attention just the way she has trained you to give it. Smiles need to be genuine, not pasted upon ones face in order to "look happy" when perhaps not really feeling so. At least that is my humble opinion.

Smiling on your worst day is a real skill!!

Thanks friends. And your point is well taken Barbara. Thank you for sharing. Aloha
